The businessman regards the NSDC decision as part of the political game.
Bogolyubov called sanctions against him a political decision / photo of UNIANBusinessman Gennady Bogolyubov commented on the NSDC decision on him and noted that the introduction of sanctions without a legitimate basis transforms the sanction mechanism into a means of sampling.
“The NSDC decision to impose sanctions against me is only a political step. I consider it as part of a political game aimed at redistribution of business assets and eliminating” disagreeable “. We prepare a legal position for active legal protection,” he stressed.
Alexei Nizhnik, lawyer Gennady Bogolyubov, added that the decision to impose sanctions against him is illegal. According to him, this is evidenced by the inconsistency of the decision of the rules of sanction legislation of Ukraine.
“First, in accordance with Article 1 of the Law of Ukraine” On Sanctions “it is determined that sanctions can be applied by Ukraine in relation to a” foreign state, a foreign legal entity, a legal entity, which is under the control of a foreign legal entity or natural person non -resident, foreigners, stateless persons “, but not in relation to citizens of Ukraine. Sanction can be applied irrelevant to citizenship only to entities that carry out terrorist activity. Obviously, Gennady Bogolyubov is a citizen of Ukraine, and is not any entity What would carry out terrorist activity.
Secondly, according to the provisions of Art. 5 of the Law of Ukraine “On Sanctions” the decision on their application should contain a term of application. Moreover, according to Art. 4 of the Law, even the definition of the sanction of “asset blocking” sounds like “temporary deprivation of the right to use and dispose of assets.” Instead, the sanction for Gennady Bogolyubov, including “blocking of assets” – was applied indefinitely, which is also contrary to the rules of the legislation, ” – explained the lawyer.
Alexei Nizhnik also recalled that Gennady Bogolyubov was wanted in the Russian Federation.
We will remind, earlier it was reported that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky put into force the NSDC decision on the introduction of sanctions against 5 businessmen. The document published the office of the Head of State.
Thus, according to the decree, sanctions were imposed against Petro Poroshenko, Konstantin Zhevago, Igor Kolomoisky, Gennady Bogolyubov and Viktor Medvedchuk. Restrictive measures involve blocking assets, prevention of capital raising outside Ukraine, restriction of trade operations, etc.
